Starting with the Sword Ancestor System: Xiao Yan, Your Harem is Mine!

3: Resentment from the Chosen OneIn the clearing in the forest, the atmosphere was as heavy as iron.

Three Great Dou Masters in black formed a pincer movement, their aura firmly locking onto Yun Yun in the center. The Five-Star Great Fighter leading them had a gruesome Centipede Scar on his face, his eyes as sinister as a viper, and he spoke hoarsely: ”Sect Leader Yun, hand over that item, and perhaps we can leave you a complete corpse.”

Yun Yun’s beautiful face was cold and clear, and the long sword in her hand glowed brightly with a green light. Although her aura was slightly disordered, her eyes remained firm: ”Wolf Head Mercenary Group? What benefits did Mu She give you to dare ambush me?”

”Dead people don’t need to know too much!” Centipede Scar roared, and the three of them simultaneously burst forth with Dou Qi. The powerful aura pressed down the surrounding vegetation, and the air itself seemed to become several times heavier. A Three-Star Great Dou Master was the first to attack, his fist wind whistling, condensing into a giant earth-yellow wolf phantom that roared as it pounced towards Yun Yun.

Yun Yun’s sword tip trembled slightly, and a sharp wind blade instantly slashed out, splitting the giant wolf phantom in half. But her figure also swayed slightly because of this, and her face became even paler. Clearly, her old injuries had not healed, and facing three opponents of the same rank at the same time put her under immense pressure.

Seeing this, the other two Great Dou Masters’ eyes gleamed with even more ferocity. They attacked from left and right, their Dou Technique lights shining, unleashing all their killing moves!

Yun Yun swung her sword to parry, her green sword shadow like a peacock spreading its tail, barely fending off the attacks from both sides. However, she was shaken so much that her blood surged, and a trace of fresh red blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth. Centipede Scar seized the opening, let out a sinister laugh, and formed his five fingers into a claw, bringing with it a Blood Wind as he aimed straight for Yun Yun’s back! If this claw strike landed, even a Dou Spirit expert would be severely injured!

Yun Yun sensed the malicious wind behind her and wanted to turn around, but it was too late. A hint of determination flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Just at this critical moment—

”Chii!”

A faint sound of air being torn, too fast to be heard.

A dark blade light, as if cut from nothingness, without any Dou Qi fluctuations, without any warning, so abruptly and precisely appeared before Centipede Scar’s wrist.

The blade light swept past, bringing with it a stream of blood beads.

Centipede Scar’s charging movement suddenly froze. The sinister smile on his face solidified, then transformed into extreme horror and bewilderment. He looked down at his arm, severed at the wrist and gushing blood, seemingly not yet understanding what had happened.

Immediately after, the excruciating pain like a tsunami crashed into his nerves.

”Ah—! My hand!!!” A shrill scream pierced the silence of the forest.

The other two Great Dou Masters who were attacking Yun Yun stopped in horror, looking suspiciously in the direction of the blade light.

At the edge of the clearing, a young man in plain clothes had appeared at some point. In his hand, he held an unremarkable fine steel blade, its tip still dripping with crimson blood beads. The young man’s face was calm, his eyes indifferent, as if he hadn’t been the one to just sever the wrist of a Five-Star Great Fighter.

It was Li Ao.

Yun Yun was also stunned, her beautiful eyes falling on Li Ao, filled with an unbelievable shock. She could feel that there were no powerful Dou Qi fluctuations from this young man; at most, he was at the Dou Practitioner level. But that strike just now... it was incredibly fast, accurate, and ruthless! That extremely pure sharpness made her heart palpitate.

”Kid! Who are you? How dare you meddle in the affairs of our Wolf Head Mercenary Group!” The excruciating pain of his severed wrist distorted Centipede Scar’s face. He stared fixedly at Li Ao, his eyes full of venomous hatred.

Li Ao flicked the blood beads from his blade, his gaze sweeping over the three of them, finally resting on Yun Yun’s beautiful yet pale face, and he said lightly: ”Passing by, couldn’t stand to watch.”

His voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable dominance.
